Generation and equipment description ↗

Folding rear seats: This changes the balance between passenger and luggage space. Check whether the folded surface is level and whether long items can pass through.
MacPherson front suspension: For a version with MacPherson front suspension, identify parts by body code and specification. The layout name alone does not establish that struts and springs are interchangeable.
Panoramic roof: Check the glass, blind and headroom. Whether the roof opens depends on the specification.
